/*
 * IOchain - Distribute a chain of dependant IO events amoung threads.
 *
 * This file is part of Bitshuffle
 * Author: Kiyoshi Masui <kiyo@physics.ubc.ca>
 * Website: http://www.github.com/kiyo-masui/bitshuffle
 * Created: 2014

 *
 *
 * Header File
 *
 * Similar in concept to a queue. Each task includes reading an input
 * and writing output, but the location of the input/output (the pointers)
 * depend on the previous item in the chain.
 *
 * This is designed for parallelizing blocked compression/decompression IO,
 * where the destination of a compressed block depends on the compressed size
 * of all previous blocks.
 *
 * Implemented with OpenMP locks.
 *
 *
 * Usage
 * -----
 *  - Call `ioc_init` in serial block.
 *  - Each thread should create a local variable *size_t this_iter* and 
 *    pass its address to all function calls. Its value will be set
 *    inside the functions and is used to identify the thread.
 *  - Each thread must call each of the `ioc_get*` and `ioc_set*` methods
 *    exactly once per iteration, starting with `ioc_get_in` and ending
 *    with `ioc_set_next_out`.
 *  - The order (`ioc_get_in`, `ioc_set_next_in`, *work*, `ioc_get_out`,
 *    `ioc_set_next_out`, *work*) is most efficient.
 *  - Have each thread call `ioc_end_pop`.
 *  - `ioc_get_in` is blocked until the previous entry's
 *    `ioc_set_next_in` is called.
 *  - `ioc_get_out` is blocked until the previous entry's
 *    `ioc_set_next_out` is called.
 *  - There are no blocks on the very first iteration.
 *  - Call `ioc_destroy` in serial block.
 *  - Safe for num_threads >= IOC_SIZE (but less efficient).
